The Ammachi Expose

We very rarely go off-topic, but one of our correspondents has alerted us to the existence of a discussion board where former devotees and critics of Mata Amritanandamayi (aka 'Ammachi') meet to discuss their grievances with the "hugging saint".

Given Ammachi's proximity to Sai Baba and her positive feedback on him, and also given Sai Baba's reported statement that Ammachi is his "spiritual sister", we thought that this should be brought to public attention.

This only serves to prove the point that no guru is free from criticism, nor should they be, as this certainly highlights the issue of fradulent gurus and the many ways they extend themselves in order to keep a grip on power and money.

Sorry to read all these small things about ammachi. If ammachi is smart with the hospital matter, it's good for her. When a person is writing all these things about ammachi, I would like to ask one thing, simple thing, no hidden agenda, no third person observation..........you can comment to this after seeing for yourself.Just one thing.......CAN YOU SIT FOR 22 HOURS WITHOUT ANY BREAK WITHOUT ANY IMMEDIATE REWARD, WITHOUT USING TOILET?

you can sit, but you cannot hug them with such intense love,you cannot express the love which you dont have(except for some nice chicks),you cannot help disgusted by the ugly faces, sweat, dirt, and the big black mark (She got) on her right cheek due to continuous hugs.simultaneously, She is alert about all the things happening in the vicinity, ie, i saw her applauding the stage programs when each end, which those in the queue, nor the people near Her failed to notice, in the hurry,and surely you cant identify my past and my present conditions just as She did, and gave the correct answer as if She knew everything about me.

Amma is Amma, is it necessary for a baby to describe a mother, IT SIMPLY KNOWS, to KNOW AMMA U NEED TO BE A BABY. Innocense is the ink in which she has been writing the story of life, if at all you are finding wrong here then u need to remove knots in your thinking, Pray for Blessings.

About Me

I was a hardcore follower of Sathya Sai Baba for just over a decade, and made six trips to see him in India. Now no longer a devotee, I use this blog to record memories, comments and muses on the Sai scenario and also point out inaccuracies in Sai Baba's philosophical and theological presentation. Why did I leave Sai Baba?
